For the past several weeks, Israel has been telling the world they had to attack the West bank and Gaza Strip because of rocket attacks in November and December against Israeli civilians. That has now been shown to be a lie.

It turns out the Israel offensive against the occupied territories was planned as early as September, when Israel requested and received GBU-39 Bunker buster bombs from the United States.

The United States has been telling the world that we did not approve of the Israeli attacks in advance, but that too, is a lie.

It turns out the USA shipped five million, eight hundred thousand pounds of explosives via ship, from the Military Ocean Terminal in Sandy Point, NC to Israel in December, just before the Gaza attacks began.

Even worse, the Military Sealift Command (MSC) is presently attempting to ship another 3,000 tons of explosives and detonators from a base in Greece, to Israel.

My fellow Americans, all the carnage in Gaza and in the West Bank that you've been seeing on TV and reading about in the newspapers, has been caused DIRECTLY by U.S. supplied bombs.

It is OUR weaponry being used to attack unarmed civilians in Gaza. It is OUR bombs that are killing unarmed men, women and children.

I think that members of the U.S. Congress, by agreeing to sell these weapons knowing how they would be used, have made their own families legitimate targets for attack. Since they approved the supply of weapons used to attack women and children abroad, it seems only fair that their own innocent family members now become targets.

Incidentally, (in case any of you Arabs are interested) the entire U.S. Congress will be out in the open at the U.S. Capitol Building on January 20 for the Presidential Inauguration.

I would jump with joy if the Inauguration was attacked with Mortars and rocket propelled grenades, so we could watch the body parts of Congress splattered all over the US Capitol.
